2 red onions -- peeled and sliced
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 pound zucchini -- trimmed and cut into matchsticks
1/2 cup fresh herbs -- chopped
salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
To serve: cooked pasta to serve 4 people
freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Gently sauce onions in oil 10-12 minutes until they are very soft. Do not burn them. Add zucchini and herbs. Cover and cook gently another 2-3 minutes. Season to taste. Arrange pasta on 4 plates and spoon sauce over the top. Serve with freshly grated Parmesan sauce. Makes 4 servings. You can vary the flavor of this simple vegetable sauce by using different herbs. I have tried fresh dill, tarragon and mint with good results. Whichever you choose, you will need to use quite a lot of it. Serve this dish following a platter of [favorites]. My favorite pasta with this is ziti.
